After taking a shower and clearing my mind, I went back to War's house. Of course I will not sleep without hugging him. It was obvious. But as I entered the living room, I found War fast asleep, sprawled out on the couch in an oversized shirt that left his skin exposed.

Swallowing roughly, I admire the sight in front of me, the vulnerability in his slumber stirring something tender within me. Again. My gaze lingered on him for a moment but I quickly shook my head. My gaze drifted to the table, where a stack of magazines lay scattered. Slowly, I reached for a book that War had been hugging in his sleep, placing it gently on the table.

I glanced at the title of the book, "How to Make Your Lover Keep Falling in Love with You?" I read, my brow furrowing.

My attention then shifted to his laptop, still open on the table. I approached, my fingers hovering over the keyboard. Curiosity got the better of me and I couldn't resist the urge to peek at the tabs open on War's laptop. There were several of them, each one seeming to offer a glimpse into his inner thoughts.

My heart raced as I read the titles one by one. "Why Didn't I Succeed in Seducing My Boyfriend?" One tab read. Another asked, "Why Doesn't My Boyfriend Want to Look at Me?" Each question felt like a dagger to my chest, revealing War's inner turmoil and self-doubt.

A surge of guilt washed over me as I realized the impact of my actions on him. I couldn't bear the thought of War questioning his worth, especially when he meant everything to me.

Among the tabs on his laptop, I found other search queries. "How to Reignite the Spark in a Relationship" and "Ways to Feel Confident and Sexy."

But it was the tab titled "Signs Your Partner Is Losing Interest" that struck me the hardest. My heart clenched at the thought of War feeling undesired or unseen. I wanted to scream out that it wasn't true, that I couldn't tear my eyes away from him, even in the darkest of moments. He deserved to know how cherished he was, how deeply I loved him.

With a heavy heart, I closed War's laptop. Oh goodness...Yin...why was I so oblivious to what War was thinking? I mean, I did sense something when he wore shirts that exposed his skin, which was unusual for him. Yet, I dismissed those thoughts because I didn't want my own desires to jeopardize his trust on me. Simply to say, I noticed how he reacted when we kissed but I ignored it because I thought my mind played a trick on me because I always have dirty thoughts whenever I'm with him.

As I turned to War's sleeping form, I reach out and gently brush a strand of hair from his forehead. He stirred slightly at my touch, a soft sigh escaping his lips but he remained deep in slumber. Gently, I pressed a tender kiss to his forehead, whispering softly, "I love you, War. I love you so much because you mean everything to me."

I gently lifted him into my arms, cradling him as I carried him to the bedroom. His eyes fluttered open slowly, a faint smile gracing his lips as he wrapped his arms around me, holding on tightly as I carried him.

"You sleep here tonight," his words barely audible as he nestled closer against me.

"Of course," I whispered back as I carefully laid him down on the bed.

As War settled into the pillows, I tucked the covers around him, ensuring he was comfortable. I smiled down at him, brushing a strand of hair away from his forehead.

"I love you so much," I said to the person who meant so much to me.

He smiled and held my hand. "I love you too."

As War drifted off to sleep, I stayed by his side, watching over him until his breathing grew slow and even. Only then did I allow myself to relax. With a contented sigh, I settled down beside him, pulling the covers up around us both.
